Despite objections from some residents, President Donald Trump will travel Wednesday to El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, to review recovery efforts from mass shootings over the weekend, officials said Tuesday.

Security officials find the cities "safe and ready" for Trump visits with victims' families, survivors and law enforcement personnel involved, said presidential counselor Kellyanne Conway.

The Federal Aviation Administration has issued a notification of "VIP movement" in El Paso and Dayton on Wednesday.

In remarks at the White House on Monday, the president and first lady Melania Trump said they are praying for the victims, their families and the survivors.

"We will stand by their side forever," Trump said. "We will never forget. These barbaric slaughters are an assault upon our communities, an attack upon our nation, and a crime against all of humanity."

Some residents and lawmakers in El Paso have asked Trump to stay away, given his past attacks on some migrants and claims that they are "invading" the United States. The killer in El Paso authored an anti-immigration "manifesto" that echoed some of Trump's language.

"Words have consequences: The president has made my community and my people the enemy," said Rep. Veronica Escobar, D-Texas, an El Paso lawmaker speaking on MSNBC. "He has told the country that we are people to be feared, people to be hated."

Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke, who once represented the El Paso area as a member of the U.S. House, said Trump "helped create the hatred that made Saturday's tragedy possible," and therefore "should not come to El Paso. We do not need more division. We need to heal. He has no place here."
